I'm not surprised at your disappointing results as I have experienced the same with a variety of power filtration or generating devices. Your surmise is correct that such devices work much more easily with AV equipment or computers than they do with audio. I have an Audience power filtration unit which was unacceptable with my 2 pure audio systems (although HP swore by them) but works well on my TV and its associated stereo system as well as on my computer (audio). Similarly, I have a PS Audio power cable unacceptable with the audio systems but works like a charm with the computer. I did not like the early PP for both sonic and practical reasons. The only device which I have found to work with multiple units in the chain are the PS Audio Ultimate Outlets (discontinued). They can be found used at modest cost but they sell quickly. You could try them with the other units. The lack of any real improvement in batteries over the years is becoming more frustrating with the increasing garbage in the AC and in the surrounding environment.

Steverino,

I actually am surprised with my result. Also, what you describe about your experience does not correlate with what I do. If you have experienced the same with a variety of power filtration or generating devices then you shall not have problem paralleling them as they are not switching power supplies and they do not return garbage distortions back to the source. I had 5 PS Audio Power Plants. They were plugged all in paralleled and I did not detect that they mutually affected each other.  Sure, you might experienced that some of your power devices working in parallel might impact each other but it was most likely not for the same reason as PP2000 does and the effect most likely was different. The PS Audio Ultimate Outlet is just a common mode filter – very different animal compare to PP2000. I do not think that something like PS Audio Ultimate Outlets would stop penetration of noise from one PP2000 to another. The PP2000 has already PS Audio Ultimate Outlet, own common mode filter, at input.

I will look into various other filtration options but they for sure will not be capacituve.
